Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
satsilem ~ Johan’s page is back up again.
To get this working with categories edit the plugin and add the following, which is just a small mod of the ‘section’ function:
function glx_hl_current_category($atts)
{
global $pretext;
if (is_array($atts)) extract($atts);
$category = (empty($category)) ? "" : $category;
$class = (empty($class)) ? "current" : $class;
$output = ' class="'.$class.'"';
$categories = array_map("trim", explode(",", $category));
$condition = in_array($pretext["c"], $categories);
return ($condition) ? $output : "";
}Offline

Bookmarked, downloaded and I am going to test it right now!
Great!
Thank you for sharing the informationOffline
Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Hi! It works great when a section is selected and I could make a separate page for every section so I can have a great navigation. But I wonder if there is any chance of detecting the current section in the output instead of having to state a particular section?
I’ve tried this kind of thing:<code>
<txp:article_custom section=”<txp:section />” form=“recent_article” sort=“Posted desc” /> </code> but it breaks.
It would be great if you could make it work!

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Re my last question, I just realised I could do this which isn’t much trouble at all:<code>
<txp:if_section name=“about”>
<txp:article_custom form=“recent_article” limit=“10” section=“about” sort=“Posted desc” /></txp:if_section>
<txp:if_section name=“contact”>
<txp:article_custom form=“recent_article” limit=“10” section=“contact” sort=“Posted desc” /></txp:if_section>
</code> etcetera
It works fine like that :-)
Cheers!

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Hi,
I tried the code that was posted to add if_current_category to the plugin (found in this post, however it is not working for me.
Does anyone know why?
Thanks

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Well, I did some searching and I found the culprit. (at least a solution that works).
The original poster of the code simply copied the glx_hl_current_section code and replaced the [s]’s with [c]’s.
Since categories work slightly different than sections, I found that copying the glx_hl_current_article code worked better, because that referenced $pretext and $thisarticle.
Then, I just changed [id] and [thisid] with [c] and [category1]. I’m not sure if there is a way to do category 1 or 2 (there probably is), but I was satisfied with category1.
Below is the PHP I put in the plugin code.
function glx_hl_current_category1($atts)
{
global $thisarticle;
global $pretext;
if (is_array($atts)) extract($atts);
$active = (empty($active)) ? 'current' : $active;
$output = ''.$active.'"';
if ($pretext["c"] == $thisarticle["category1"])
{
return $output;
}

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Hello,
Does this plug-in work with clean URLs? I’ve used it in both __misc__-type and __article__-type forms to no avail.

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Yes it does. I’ve used it like this:
On the page: <txp:article_custom section="blah" form="article_title_menu" />
Article form ‘article_title_menu’:
<li>
<a<txp:glx_hl_current_article class="active" /> href="<txp:permlink />"><txp:title /></a>
</li>Last edited by els (2008-01-25 16:25:56)

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Hi – thanks for a great plugin. Can anyone help me with a related css problem?
Here you can see I have got the plugin working for the top four articles in that section. However, I need to apply styles to each list item it produces to get the colour effect in the original navigation panel below.
Any ideas, anyone?
My form and code are exactly as in Johan’s example.
Thanks in advance

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
Well, I got it to do the job by calling each article individually on the template and then giving each one a separate form with the plugin and a class attached to the permlink. It works, but not ideal. Any further help would be welcome.

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
All links to this excellent plugin and/or its creator appear to be dead. Any ideas where I can find it again?

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article
hmmm, not working for me over here. i was wondering if anyone could look at my code?
<ul id="navlist" break="li" wraptag="ul">
<h2>
<li<txp:glx_hl_current_section section="contact" class="active" />><txp:section name="contact">Contact</txp:section></li>
<li<txp:glx_hl_current_section section="bio" class="active" />><txp:section name="bio">Bio</txp:section></li>
<li<txp:glx_hl_current_section section="blog" class="active" />><txp:section name="blog">Blog</txp:section></li>
</h2>
</ul>i’ve tried a few different “class=” options. in my css i have a declaration for a:hover so i’d like to have this plugin inject the hover style into my navbar
#navlist li {
display: inline;
float: right;
font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;
font-size:1.3em;
text-transform: lowercase;
margin-left:10px;
}
#navlist a:hover{
color:#627785;
text-decoration:underline;
